That's a cool song, never heard it before. What's the rest of the Best of America Underground cassette like?


Couldn't tell ya. Though any cassette that's got Armand Schaubroeck nestling shoulders with R. Stevie Moore, The Residents and Algebra Suicide has to be at least decent. I found that track on a Styrenes comp called It's Still Artastic (an expansion of an earler comp, 'It's Artastic 75-79'). They were part of the the whole Rocket From The Tombs Cleveland crew, but were arguably the sharp, arthouse-movie watching, coffee-sipping, subversive intellectuals of the bunch (with The Dead Boys being the dimwitted doofuses). I think they're probably one of the great unsung Art Rock bands. Also got a wicked Krautrocky treatment they did a few years back of Terry Riley's In C which is my favourite version.
